"[The] council's idea about kids walking to school looks pretty much insane when you live on Caulton St," a Stonefields parent shared.

According to the Ministry of Transport, just 29 percent of students walked to school in 2014, compared to 42 percent in the late 1980s. While 12 percent of students used to bike to school, that number in 2014 was less than 5 percent.
